Hello,
An unassuming plain
brown box arrived at the office yesterday. Do you speak Fuji?
Within it was a Fujifilm
digital camera (FinePix
4800 Zoom) and the prospect of glorious digital photos made
easy.
Anxious to "share a
moment, share a life," I was forced to exercise great
restraint. My new toy required five hours of charging up
before I could play it. I willed myself into techie mode, and pored
over the instruction manual.
It's not exactly a
"point and shoot" camera, but believe me, if non-techie me
could figure it out within minutes, it's close enough. It's
cutely user-friendly; saying "Hello" when I turn it on and
"See You" when I switch it off.
It's small. It's sexy.
It's sophisticated. It's smart. It's simple to use. It's sleek and
stylish with a body designed F.A. Porsche. I love it!
Just think, I can take
hundreds of pictures without paying a penny for film or
processing. The photos are instantly "developed". No
more bad shots or "insurance shots." No more running
out of film. I can crop and resize. I can instantly upload. I can
send them home by email or post them here.
I think I'm in
Heaven! Just as I took that quantum leap from the typewriter
to a word processor, I'm moving up from film to digital photos with
excitement.
I left figuring out how
to load the images onto the computer to DH. He's a techie and
voila! Here are the first of many more photos to
come:
Freddy B: That's our handsome
little boy!
O -- our precious, mischievous girlzilla.
Freddy B & O: Our dog kids.
Here's a snippet on the
camera:
"There is the innate desire for lightweight and compact devices with a stylish design.Realizing this trend, manufacturers, like Fujifilm, have spent more money and resources
on the research and development of digital imaging technology. The Fujifilm FinePix
4800Zoom is one of the resultant fruits of labour in Fujifilm's product line-up of digital
cameras. Aside from being a digital camera, the 4800Zoom contains many other
surprises."
In case, I misplace
them:
You'll be missed.
